Buying a Single Family in Davis Square

If you’re looking to buy a single family within walking distance to Davis Square the first you should know is that you’re likely going to pay between $1.8M - $2.4M (at least as of this writing on 12/12/2025). 

Most of these single families in Davis have about 4 beds and depending on the range you are buying, expect between 2,000 square feet up to around 3,000 square feet on the high end. Of course there are exceptions, occasionally I see tiny houses with 2 beds and 1,200 square feet pop up or large victorians with 4,000 square feet for around $2M, but the bread and butter single family close to Davis Square tends to be in the range I mentioned above.

I should also mention once in a blue moon we’ll see a fixer upper walking distance to Davis Square and those usually land in the $1.2M to $1.5M range. 

The reality is, only 6 single families sold in 2025 on-market walking distance to Davis Square so the big thing you need to know (besides budget) is not a lot comes on and it may take a while (as in 1 to 2 years) to find something that works for you.
